This document discusses the physiology of hypoxia, or reduced oxygen supply to tissues. It defines four types of hypoxia: hypoxic (reduced oxygen in arterial blood), anemic (decreased blood's oxygen carrying capacity), stagnant (decreased blood flow to tissues), and histotoxic (tissues' decreased ability to use oxygen). For each type, it outlines the characteristic arterial oxygen levels, oxygen saturation, and other features, as well as potential causes. The effects of hypoxia depend on its severity, duration, and type, but can include symptoms like cyanosis, tachycardia, tachypnea, and metabolic acidosis. Over time, the body may compensate through mechanisms like angiogenesis and polycythemia.

hypoxia :oxygen defecincy at tissue level.in these slides you are going to in touch with its types ,causes effects.share whatever you wanted to say comment us .
these notes are provided by our loving mam MAM SANIA .thanks to teach us mam :)

lecture 5: it's good for as to take a breif about how does atmospheric air will pass to our lungs then to blood, for transportation and utilization of oxygen and excretion of carbon dioxide. Many issue are related when gas exchange is performed.

For my colleagues and medical students out there who need to either read or present the subject of hypoxia in surgical patients. I hope you find this one helpful.
Hypoxia is O2 deficiency at the tissue level. A pathological condition in which the whole body as a whole or a region of the body is deprived of adequate oxygen supply. It is the decrease below normal levels of oxygen in inspired gases, arterial blood, or tissues, without reaching anoxia.

This ppt cover basics of oxygen therapy, its indication and the various methods to give oxygen.

3. Classification
▪ Reduced oxygen tension of arterial blood – Hypoxic hypoxia
▪ Decreased oxygen carrying capacity of the blood – anemic hypoxia
▪ Decreased rate of blood flow to the tissues – stagnant hypoxia
▪ Decreased utilization of oxygen by tissues – histotoxic hypoxia
4. But first
▪ Arterial Po2
▪ Oxygen carrying capacity of blood (Hb value )
▪ A –V difference of Po2
▪ Percentage saturation of hemoglobin SaO2
5. Hypoxic hypoxia
▪ Decreased oxygen tension in blood
▪ Decreased O2 saturation of blood
▪ O2 carrying capacity of blood is normal
▪ Blood flow to the tissues normal
▪ Tissue utilization is normal
▪ A –V Po2 difference is low
6. Causes
▪ Low oxygen tension of inspire air
– High altitude
– Closed spaces
– Artificial gas breathing
▪ Hypoventilation
– Obstruction to respiratory passages
– Decreased lung compliance
– Paralysis of respiratory muscles
– Respiratory depression
▪ Reduced diffusion of O2 across respiratory membrane
– Emphysema , pulmonary edema , fibrosis
7. Anemic hypoxia
▪ Basic problem is decreased oxygen carrying capacity of blood
▪ Causes
– Anemia – bone marrow depression
– CO poisoning
– Met-haemoglobinemia
8. Characteristic features
▪ Arterial Po2 is normal
▪ O2 carrying capacity of blood is reduced ( SaO2 reduced)
▪ A –V difference is normal
▪ Normal tissue utilization
12. Histotoxic Hypoxia
▪ Problem with tissues
▪ Tissues not able to use the oxygen
▪ Inhibition of cellular respiration (ETC) by poisons
▪ Cyanide , sulphide poisoning
▪ Normal pO2
▪ SaO2 normal
▪ A –V difference is nil
13. Effects of hypoxia
▪ Hypoxia mainly affects CNS , specially the higher centers
▪ Fulminant hypoxia , acute hypoxia , chronic hypoxia
▪ Effects depends on the severity , duration and type , and
compensatory mech of body
